CJP appears to be in a much better place these days.

This is one guy who I personally believe could have really been something special. There have been many current and past WWE superstars who have publicly stated that Parker was one of the most polite, humble and talented young men they have ever worked with. However, his kindness never really earned him a legit shot at success with NXT. Parker was subsequently released on April 3, 2015.
Since leaving NXT, Parker has changed his ring name to "CJP." He's since seen action with CZW and NJPW among other promotions. Most recently, Parker was involved in an angle where he was feuding with several members of The Bullet Club. At only 27 years old, he's got plenty left to give the wrestling world.

About the author

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
